PHOTO's of 20's - 30's Livestock Cars CB&Q C&S FW&D

[SILENT SAM]

Here's my very first ever...tec-o- attempt !

I'm trying to locate photo's of CB&Q..C&S..FW&D..Cattle Cars from around the 20's thru the 30's...

I am putting a "Steam Era, Cattle Train" (HO scale) together...

My Grand Father used to ranch in the "SandHills" north of Ellsworth, Nebraska..

We would do a two day trail drive to Ellsworth every fall for shipping the calves on the CB&Q to Omaha..or Chicago....(til the 60's)

thought in my "old age" I'd try to re-create Ellsworth and the cattle pens...at about 1910----1935 ?

right now I need to see the placement of "data" & size and color of Heralds on the cars and the Locomotives

Any info would help...

Sam,

Just perusing the "Q" forum here and noticed your post didn't get any response. I don't have the answers, but I do know a couple of other places you can try if you haven't already.
